Not sure what it being a public place has to do with anything. She was well within her rights to get people to move away, just a shame she had such a terrible shrieking voice.

The fact that she seems to keep saying it when the man is on the ground with 5 officers on him. The public were far enough away, so I don't see why they should have to move back further.

For the public's safety, for the officers' safety, and to preserve any evidence and stop people from getting in for a closer look. Seems quite obvious, really.
 
The situation was pretty much over, and they were far enough away. Seems quite obvious, really.

If someone stepped over the barrier "for a closer look" then fair enough, but people where just standing there filming.

Safety is paramount.

Irrespective of when a a member of the public thinks a situation is defused it needs to be very robustly handled.

It's when you think all is well and drop your guard you end up getting a beating.

Did you not notice the knife being kicked away from the mentalcase? Keeping people as far back as possible is desirable.
 
Before, during and after. All the same.

Public has no business being anywhere near the scene. Tazer deploys serialised parts that need to be collected for a start.
 
I have just watched a fairly gut wrenching video on Facebook with a presumed mother flipping her baby around carelessly.

Apologies if this is an old video, as I have only just found it, but has anyone else caught this before? I've searched for it on YouTube but it appears to have been taken from there.

Fake...?
